Any suggestions on a both stylish and functional iPhone 3G case?
Switch easy has a nice hybrid of the hard/soft cases
The Incase Slider builds an external battery into the case, doubling the battery life.

I have had the Capsule Rebel since the 3G came out. It has more then stood up the the harsh beating I have given it, including sliding face first across pavement, being dropped on tile, and much more, all without so much as a scuff on my phone. Best $25 case around if you ask me.
I used the capsule rebel for a while but it started to sag at the bottom after taking it off about twice a week to clean the iphone. Since then I bought an incase slider and it's great. I like the feel better than my capsule rebel and it's pretty stylish as well.
iLounge has a huge list of in depth reviews for everything made for iphone that is worth reviewing and even some things that were not. If I ever consider purchasing anything for my iphone/ ipod I always check here first.
I have had a Switcheasy Capsule Rebel for a very long time and my phone in nearly flawless underneath. It's not all rubber plastic so it slides out of my pocket but it also provides grip. The only knock I have is that it adds some bulk but other than that I don't think you can get better protection. It's not overpriced and got a great review on ilounge.
I've always found this to be the one I return to trying over 10. http://retail.contourdesign.com/?/products/49
Its the only one that contours the phone and almost does not compromise the design of the iPhone which one of the reasons people love it...
I like the flick bottom so you can dock it with many accessories with out having to take the case off which is the cast for most cases :)
If you have the money, I suggest a case by Vaja
